Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather Chapter 1756 - 1068: Recruiting Lin Qihe
Previously on Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather...
Flame Mountain, within the Pill Hall.
Yang Qingyu reported to Yang Zhenshan about Lin Qihe seeking her.
Yang Zhenshan held the Communication Talisman left by Lin Qihe, stroked his beard and looked at it, "A very special Communication Talisman, seems to have a different aura!"
After all, he was a Talisman Master and could also draw Communication Talismans, so naturally, he was quite familiar with the runes on them.
However, Lin Qihe’s Communication Talisman was evidently different from ordinary ones; other spells must have been added to it.
"Ancestor, Senior Lin said the Unpredictable Ghost Sect would attack True Yang Immortal City in half a month. Should we prepare in advance?" Yang Qingyu asked.
Yang Zhenshan waved his hand dismissively, "No need!"
The attack on True Yang Immortal City by the Unpredictable Ghost Sect was anticipated.
Neither he nor the Sky Cloud Sword Sect would abandon True Yang Immortal City, nor would they allow the Unpredictable Ghost Sect to occupy it.
As for preparations, they had already been completed long ago.
Regarding True Yang Immortal City, White Cloud True Monarch valued it even more than Yang Zhenshan did; how could he not make preparations in advance?
So at this moment, Yang Zhenshan was not worried about the Unpredictable Ghost Sect’s attack on True Yang Immortal City; he was more interested in Lin Qihe.
Previously, fearing that Lin Qihe would bring trouble from the Unpredictable Ghost Sect, he didn’t meet with Lin Qihe, but now that the Ghost Sect was going to attack True Yang Immortal City, he had no such concerns.
"You go on with your tasks, I’ll go to meet Lin Qihe!" Yang Zhenshan said kindly to Yang Qingyu with a smile.
"Oh!" Yang Qingyu hesitated for a moment and then said, "Ancestor, Senior Lin should have no ill intent!"
Yang Zhenshan was surprised by her words.
"You seem to have a different view of Lin Qihe!"
"No, not at all." Yang Qingyu said a bit embarrassed, "I just feel Senior Lin is quite good; I can sense he has no ill intent towards me."
Yang Zhenshan stroked his beard, scrutinizing Yang Qingyu.
Yang Qingyu was cultivating the Spirit Rhinoceros Sensing Scripture, allowing her to have extremely sensitive perception, even to detect people’s good or evil intentions.
When she said Lin Qihe had no ill intent, it was not mere idle talk, but a genuine perception.
"You come with me to meet him!"
He changed his tone, deciding to bring Yang Qingyu along.
He was well aware of Lin Qihe’s identity and background, which was the Qingli Lin Family; however, the Qingli Lin Family had long been annihilated. Now, only a group of ordinary people remained, and although the Lin Family was still a royal family in the Qingli Dynasty, they were no longer an Immortal Cultivation Family.
After Lin Qihe’s Core Formation, he had never shown himself in the Qingli Dynasty or taken care of the annihilated Lin Family.
This was actually quite normal; when an Immortal Cultivation Family is annihilated, it doesn’t mean everyone in the family dies but that all those possessing spiritual apertures are dead, leaving only ordinary people without them.
The current Qingli Lin Family is no longer what it once was; Lin Qihe not caring is also understandable.
But with Lin Qihe’s abilities and strength, if he wanted to build another Qingli Lin Family, it would be quite easy. In just three to five hundred years, he could establish a stronger Qingli Lin Family.
The reason Lin Qihe hasn’t done that is probably because he still wants revenge on the Unpredictable Ghost Sect.
Yang Zhenshan also had some ideas regarding Lin Qihe.
He wanted to recruit Lin Qihe, letting him join the Life Realm Immortal Palace.
Lin Qihe’s origins were clear, he was a legitimate and clean person, with no grievances or animosity with the Yang family.
More importantly, Lin Qihe was an alchemist; after all, the original Qingli Lin Family was renowned for their elixirs.
Perhaps Lin Qihe wasn’t a Third-order Alchemist yet, but he was undoubtedly a top-notch Second-rank Alchemist.
A Golden Core Cultivator, a Second-rank Alchemist, and a solitary person—such individuals were unquestionably the most suitable recruits for the Life Realm Immortal Palace.
If he was willing to join the Life Realm Immortal Palace, Yang Zhenshan wouldn’t even need to place any restrictions on him, offering him the utmost trust.
...
Arriving outside the Yang Family Blessed Land, Yang Zhenshan took out Lin Qihe’s Communication Talisman and crushed it. Instead of transforming into a streak of spiritual light like ordinary Communication Talismans, it condensed into spiritual light and vanished instantly.
Yang Zhenshan observed this, revealing a thoughtful expression.
This was a method augmented by Divine Skills!
It seemed to be a space-related Divine Skill.
Space-related Magic and Divine Skills can actually be attributed to Void attribute Divine Skills.
Like the Teleportation Skill, its essence is the Void attribute, borrowing the void to instantly complete distance movement.
The Communication Talisman just now was similar; its disappearance wasn’t entering the Void, but traversing through the void.
This indicated that the Divine Dao Intent Lin Qihe comprehended was likely the Void Dao Intent.
"Brew tea!"
Yang Zhenshan instructed Yang Qingyu.
Yang Qingyu waved her hand, brought forth a large boulder, with spiritual light flickering, a stone table and several stone stools appeared before Yang Zhenshan in moments.
Then she took Spiritual Spring Water and Spiritual Tea from the Storage Bag and began boiling the water to brew tea.
Before Lin Qihe arrived, the tea was already brewed.
"Ancestor, please drink the tea!" Yang Qingyu handed Yang Zhenshan a bowl of clear tea.
Yang Zhenshan took it, chuckling and asking, "When do you plan to go into seclusion to break through?"
"Hehe, I’ll go into seclusion in a few days!" Yang Qingyu answered with a laugh.
"Mm, once you break through, Ancestor will give you a piece of Third-stage Spiritual Objects and let Jizhen refine a good Lifebound Magical Treasure for you!" Yang Zhenshan said.
"Really!" Yang Qingyu looked at Yang Zhenshan with surprise and delight.
"Of course, when has Ancestor ever lied to you?" Yang Zhenshan replied.
"Thank you, Ancestor!" Yang Qingyu beamed with joy, overjoyed.
